Hi Davide,
    the same configuration seems to work fine with my installation (Xorg 
7.2 shipped with 014).

Also the run-time change gives me no errors:

setxkbmap -rules xorg -model pc105 -layout it -option ""

Re font paths, below is my configuration. Basically I just mapped what 
was into /Files/Fonts/.

Section "Files"
    RgbPath      "/System/Links/Shared/X11/rgb"
    ModulePath   "/System/Links/Libraries/xorg/modules"
    FontPath     "/Files/Fonts/Misc/"
    FontPath     "/Files/Fonts/TTF/"
    FontPath     "/Files/Fonts/OTF"
    FontPath     "/Files/Fonts/Type1/"
    FontPath     "/Files/Fonts/100dpi/"
    FontPath     "/Files/Fonts/75dpi/"
    FontPath     "/Files/Fonts/CID"
    FontPath     "/Files/Fonts/Console"
    FontPath     "/Files/Fonts/Cyrillic"
    FontPath     "/Files/Fonts/Ghostscript"
    FontPath     "/Files/Fonts/OpenType"
    FontPath     "/Files/Fonts/TrueType"
EndSection

Regards,
Giambattista
